Sadly, it is precisely because Disney entertains children that they need such security today. Remember Beslan? Disneyworld and Disneyland are most definitely what a heartless, religiously motivated terrorist would deem to be a 'target rich' environment.

yeah,it does not look as the mickey mouse cartoon seems to be. HuH.....I never expected that a company which entertains children ,can need such a help

This isn’t scary. This is the new normal.

Most corporations are trying to build similar functions. The only surprise is that this job is in-house, not contracted out. Disney runs a cruise line. Remember the recent case in which top al Qaeda operators who were trying to blow up cruise ships were rounded up in Turkey only because the super-powered explosives manufacturing equipment they were using caused a fire? The leader even had his face altered by plastic surgery. Think of the symbolism for the jihadists (my spellcheck wants to change the previous word to “nihilists”) if they can slaughter infidels' children at a Disney temple to materialism. Would you be giggling if this job were at a chemical plant, medical research lab or sea port? But how often have you taken your kids to any of those places?

More importantly.....

Yeah, that'll happen, become an SME on counterterrorism and International Affairs as a collateral duty. Makes perfect sense, maybe it's a Government job after all.

It actually sounds like both an interesting and necessary job. Any large multinational probably benefits from someone in that roll, and the job requirements really make sense.

Especially given Disney's high profile as a very american but international presence, such a DCI-fo-Disney roll seems essential for the company.

Wonder if those Disney Security Jobs have anything to do with these DHS laws? Given Bush and his datamining ways, its likely a part of the TIA that didnt go away, they just renamed it TOPSAIL.
Consider all the Foreigners that travel there and the Data gleaned. Welcome to Orwellia.

Because existing laws provide DHS with only limited authority to address security at chemical facilities, it has relied primarily on the industry's voluntary security efforts. However, the extent to which companies are addressing security is unclear. Unlike EPA, for example, which requires drinking water facilities to improve their security, DHS does not have the authority to require chemical facilities to assess their vulnerabilities and implement security measures. Therefore, DHS cannot ensure that facilities are taking these actions. DHS has stated that its existing authorities do not permit it to effectively regulate the chemical industry, and that the Congress should enact federal requirements for chemical facilities.
